Many of these companies are exhibiting at “Defence and Security 2015” at IMPACT Muang Thong Thani Exhibition Hall, in Bangkok, Thailand, for the first time. UK companies are looking to build new industrial joint ventures in Thailand and the region.

The strong UK presence at the exhibition reflects the continuing importance of Thailand as a longstanding defence industrial partner.
